We went to two places in Augusta. The first shall remain nameless. All I will say is we had a less that stellar experience there, and walked away with no good leads. The next place we went was a winner!
We saw the dress that we had picked out online as "the dress" Cail had maintained this dress wouldn't look as good in person as it did online, but I would not hear it. Until Anna tried it on.....
Here it is on Anna. See the difference ? (No offense Anna...)
It just was not the dress in person that I wanted it to be. So, we picked out a few more dresses and looked for "the dress"
I am very much a "I will know it when I see it" type of girl. This has been my shopping method as long as I have been a shopper! Anna tried on several more dresses as my personal model. Nothing really "wowed" me. Then she tried on this black dress that I had grabbed off the rack because I liked the top. When she put it on, I knew this was it. Now, before this moment having the bridesmaids wear black had not crossed my mind....but when I saw her in this dress, I just knew I had it.
And if you cant tell much about it, look at it here.
Anna tested is "dance-ability" and says it is very comfortable. The dress has a train on it, but it can be ordered with the train sewn up, which is likely what we will do. I am still not sure exactly where we will order them from. They all have to be ordered from the same place to get the same dye lot. So, I am researching all that and will let you know as we progress.
I am reserving the right to say this may or may not be my final decision on bridesmaid dresses. After I select my dress I will either confirm or deny this selection. (but I reallllly like this! and hope this is it!!)
That is all for now. Next time I will tell you about my visit with the wedding planner.
Thanks for reading!
